In addition to its positive effects on strengthening immunity, exercise can help reduce the negative effects of pandemic stress and, if properly used, can have a significant impact on the mental health of many people around the world. In most countries, however, there is still a serious lack of will to create appropriate physical exercise […]
The SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19 currently has the most negative impact on the health, economy and lifestyle of people worldwide. Scientists are looking for vaccines and drugs, and, as in the presented research, analyze the possibility of mechanical impact on SARS-CoV-2 molecules in order to destroy them. An international team of engineers, including those […]
As recent studies show, vibrotherapy improves the aesthetics of appearance and can be successfully used in cosmetology. One of the basic applications of vibrotherapy could be the fight against cellulite, but the optimal vibration parameters still require research. Therefore, the aim of the presented work of scientists of the Academy of Physical Education in Krakow […]
Prolonged exercise can damage muscles, resulting in pain, swelling and reduced strength. It has been previously shown that whole-body vibration therapy, applied in a standing position on a vibration platform, improves muscle regeneration. In this study, scientists from the University of Physical Education in Kraków (Poland) decided to test the effect of a milder form […]
The aim of presented research of Polish scientists from the University of Physical Education in Krakow and the Vitberg Research and Development Department was to analyze the impact of vibration massage on the process of muscle regeneration [reflected by the maximum force of isometric muscle contractions (Fmax)] after short-term intense physical exercise compared to the […]
The aim of the study by Pakistani scientists from the University of Lahore was to determine the effect of vibrotherapy (whole body vibration, WBV) on gait in patients with the consequences of chronic stroke. Both after routine physiotherapy (RP) and after WBV, an improvement in mobility was observed compared to the state before the procedures […]
The number of women suffering from lipoedema is constantly increasing. Conservative therapy involves manual lymphatic drainage (MLD), but this physiotherapeutic method does not always help, and its effectiveness depends on the severity and history of the disease. In view of the reports on the positive effect of vibrotherapy in reducing edema, scientists from RECON (Research […]
Whole body vibration (WBV) is a physiotherapeutic method that is currently gaining more and more popularity in the treatment of musculoskeletal system disturbances. Recent published results have shown that WBV can reduce low back pain and improve functional capacity, however, the optimal characteristics of therapeutic vibration parameters are unclear. Therefore, a Danish-Chinese team of researchers […]
The vibrations that surround us can be detected using sensitive skin mechanoreceptors. Strong vibrations can be harmful, but milder can have a positive effect on health, although the extent of this effect is still controversial. Whole-body vibration (WBV) can be provided, for example, by vibration platforms, used both in animal and human research. The presented […]
Whole-body vibration (WBV) is a form of training and physical therapy that uses mechanical vibrations to have a therapeutic effect on the human body. Scientific reports link WBV with the improvement in the functioning of muscles, skeleton, metabolism, physiological parameters, and even cognitive functions or quality of life. However, most publications on the use of […]
